Beccy's Place October New Release - Country Christmas

  Beccy has designed another holiday inspired set this month called Country Christmas.  You can find this digital set at Beccy's Place online store now. I've created two project featuring the new set.  The first clean and simple card was printed onto kraft card stock and colored with Prismacolor pencils.  Stickles were added for dimension.  I really liked how the hanging stars fit perfectly onto the sentiment! A second project started by recycling a wood block which was left over after removing the rubber mounted stamp.  The block was painted with acrylic paint.  The pre-colored image was merged onto  sheet music then printed and glued to the block.  Additional paints and splatter were added.  I finished with the burlap ribbon edging and Stickles on the ornaments. Be sure to stop by Beccy's Place store to find this set and many others.  Beccy also generously provides many free digital images, tutorials, videos and card fold ideas....
